Shortly after the Korean War, the son of then South Korean
President Syngman Rhee was hired as a Life Magazine cor-
respondent. The younger Rhee was a remarkably kind, gentle
and considerate man, but he had one problem: He loved to
drink and sometimes was gone on a bender for days.
On one occasion, Rhee was missing for three days before some-
one at the magazine's office finally suggested they look for
him. Other correspondents and even the police were involved
in the search. Finally, about two weeks later, a policeman
walked into a tavern, looked at the man slumped over the bar
and cried;
"Ah, Sweet Mr. Rhee of Life, at last I've found you!"
